Plastic bag manufacturing process

A process for bag manufacture of a bag having a first dimension from a sealed bottom of the bag to an open top of the bag, the bag being fabricated from a continuous tube of plastic film bag material;

• the process comprising the steps of:
• providing a continuous tube of plastic film bag material with a front bag panel and a rear bag panel confronted to and in contact with one another at an inside surface of the front bag panel and the rear bag panel;
• providing a sealing and cutting station having apparatus for placing two parallel seals and cutting the continuous tube of the plastic film bag material between the two parallel seals;
• simultaneously forming and cutting first adjacent double seals across the front bag panel and the rear bag panel, the double seals in parallel side-by-side relation with one another;
• advancing the continuous tube of plastic film bag material at least by twice the first dimension from the sealed bottom of the bag to the open top of the bag;
• simultaneously forming and cutting second adjacent double seals across the front bag panel and the rear bag panel, the second adjacent double seals in parallel side-by-side relation with one another whereby a double bag unit is formed and severed having single seals at opposite ends of the double bag unit with the continuous tube of plastic film bag material having two first dimensions between the single seals at opposite ends of the double bag unit;
• stacking a plurality of double bag units;
• and,
• medially cutting to completely sever the double bag unit at a medial portion of the double bag unit between the single seals at opposite ends to form two bags from the double bag unit.
